About Dacing Tree

Thank you for visiting Dacing Tree. I'm the company president and lead programmer. Since I'm the one you will be contacting, you may first want to know a bit about my programming history and Dacing Tree's philosophy.

I've been computer programming since the early 1980s, beginning with dual-floppy PCs and progressing to the current versions of Windows operating systems. I work at a major university where my applications have been used by thousands of clients throughout the state of Florida. My job taught me about writing programs that are reliable and focused to the specific task at hand.

My department was one of the early Internet adopters. I continued to use the same skills I learned from programming to develop informational Web sites that were professional, yet uncluttered and easy to navigate. I also learned Web-based programming with Java applets, Perl, PHP, and the like.

Over the years, I progressed to bigger and bigger projects that removed me from direct client contact. I missed the fun of working with people, discussing their problems, and providing the solution they needed. So, I started my own company.

Now, while some programmers quit their day job and start up a business with dreams of getting a million-dollar contract, I'm much more practical: I've kept my day job. This allows me the freedom to:

• 1. Provide personal programming to individuals and businesses who otherwise would not be able to afford such a service if they had to rely on large software companies (who aren't interested in writing or fixing the small stuff anyway).

• 2. Concentrate on just the features you want (I don't have to answer to a marketing department or stockholders).

• 3. Involve skilled colleagues (I don't pretend to know everything about programming, so I ask for help when I need it).

Because of these freedoms, I've been able to create a company with the goal of offering programming services that meets your specific needs. By sharing well-tested, modular code in all of my programs, I can guarantee you a reliable product at a modest cost.

I hope you'll consider Dacing Tree.

Sid Sachs, President
